Finds from 3 Centuries 1802-1821 Artillery Button

[steelheadwill]

Hi Everyone,
Been away for a bit, but diggin when I can.
Got a few items from different sites, Land and Sea.
I originally forgot to post the artillery corps militia button, (had it soaking)
A fair example of a button that I have recovered dozens of in two sizes.
Photo in bottom reply.
Wish the Enameled Barrette held up better, must have been beautiful when lost.
flat button has a neat floral backmark.
don't know what the bent copper item is, anyone seen similar
Massive 'Man Size' Buckle, and decent painted 'Pepsi'
Surprised how similar the two marbles in my recent posts look,
this one is a patriotic red white & blue, the other is orange white & green.
Can't keep away from those spoons
Best digs to All

That's really cool! I've never seen one of those before!
I'll have to keep my eyes open for them the next time I'm in an antique shop.
I probably would've straightened it out and used it as a bookmark!
